I'm a ^Gmrock, I'm an island and I need no one to ^D7love me At the ^Gmend of the world, there'll be no man a^D7bove me I work ^Ebthe live long day, to ^Gmdo things my way But if I ^Ebhad a girl, ^D7I would tell her ^Gmthis

Oh yeah, "^Gmno" means "no", but your skirt comes into ^D7question That you ^Gmask for it, will be the whore's sug^D7gestion You'll ^Ebwork the live long day, to ^Gmtake home half the pay So if I ^Ebhad a girl, ^D7I would tell her ^Gmthis

You gotta be ^Gmbolder, better, harder, faster Don't ^Ebtake no shit off no lord, no master Don't ^Cmlisten when they see how far you've ^D7gone Cos' you ^Gmgo to work and you raise the babies And you ^Ebwork some more, now listen ladies If you ^Cmthink we're done, we've ^D7only just be^Gmgun

Well you ^Gmgo to school and they tell you that you're ^D7equal But in the ^Gmbig wide world that just means half the ^D7people And ^Ebone thing you don't see, there ain't no ^Gmdicks on page three So if you ^Ebhave a girl, ^D7please remind her ^Gmthis
